SUNSET IMAGES
“In the depths of Mexico City, a maelstrom of sound has been brewing, Sunset Images, a sonic entity -fueled by the unyielding passion of Samuel Osorio- has transcended the influences of krautrock, shoegaze, and punk into a layered soundscape of dissonance, cathartic release, and emotional depth.
With a growing reputation for their intense live performances, Sunset Images has shared stages with notable bands, toured extensively across multiple continents and released a series of EPs and a LP that confront violence, racism and misogyny, and had dealt with subjects like loneliness, anger and desperation.
This journey has lead them into their highly anticipated debut with Dedstrange, the label founded by none other than the mastermind behind A Place To Bury Strangers and the FX pedal company Death by Audio, Oliver Ackermann, who sought out and brought them into the Dedstrange tribe of sonic outcasts, where Sunset Images has found the perfect home and only label that could match their vision for massively distorted and inextricable sound.
Their new album, "Oscilador", set to drop on January 23, 2026, is a sonic resistance manifesto that embodies the perpetual cycle of birth, decay, chaos, and resolution that rules our world. Fractured synths, pulsating vocals, primitive drum beats, and feedback-drenched guitars collide, creating an aural landscape that's both disorienting and irresistible – brutal, raw, and honest, yet accessible, chaotic, and beautiful, like the world itself."
